(I tried to send an earlier version of this a few days ago. It's not
in your list archives; an MTA somewhere might have had a bad moment.)
I have good news and better news.
The good news is both reposurgeon bugs known to be blocking the GCC
repository conversion seem now to be fixed.
The better news is that the person cutting my paychecks has approved
the GCC repo conversion as a supported activity, which means I can
concentrate on this until it's done. This couldn't happen sooner
because NTPsec had to get to 1.0 first.
I'm mirroring the repo now. It would helpful if I could get an
up-to-date copy of the repository's attribution map (usernames to full
names and email addresses).
One thing my software can do now that it couldn't do six months ago
is mine Author fields from ChangeLog histories. So you'll get a
better-quality conversion than if I had been able to finish this then.

who is not willing to die for his liberty has already lost it to the first
scoundrel who is willing to risk dying to violate that person's liberty. Are
you free? -- Andrew Ford
